It’s Day 6 of the Circuit Breaker. I’ve really been a good girl and only step out to do the essentials like collecting my reusable mask, buying food and groceries. I’ve also timed myself such that I will be back within 2 hours inclusive of driving. How about you?
3 weeks ago, I had a concept of 14 Days Pilates Quarantine Workout. I was concerned that if our Singapore Pilates studios are mandated to close, then many of our older clients will be inactive for a month or longer. All the efforts that they have put in these years attending Pilates classes will take a setback. That is definitely not a good thing, physically and mentally.
Thank god for good timing as we were mandated to shut by 7 April 2020. I did 14 Days of Pilates for beginners videos, naming it “14 Days Pilates Quarantine Workout” with my Mum, sharing it on our Instagram and Tiktok. Doing these Pilates for beginners exercises with Mum gave me confidence that these Pilates beginners exercises are suitable for the young and the old since Mum curated all the moves. Mum turned 63 on 1 April 2020 and I’m glad that she is able to follow through all of the Pilates exercises! Also, I managed to rush through the filming and completed the 14 Days Pilates Quarantine Workout – Singapore Pilates Edition, with me doing it together with you step by step on our revamped Youtube channel.
The Covid-19 circuit breaker is urging everyone to #StayAtHome. Just a few days ago, Singapore Government also closed all national stadiums in the neighbourhood and beaches to discourage people from exercising in groups outdoors. But we need to move and exercise – for our body and to keep our spirits up.
This 14 Days Pilates Quarantine Workout - Singapore Pilates Edition is planned such that we focus on one part of the body a day. Through the 14 days journey, we hope to work with you to build your best body. I’ve isolated 14 most common concerns of clients, starting with the spine! Do click subscribe to our Youtube Channel so that you are notified whenever we load up a new Pilates video.
Yes, Day 1 of 14 Days Pilates Quarantine Workout - Singapore Pilates Edition is about building a strong and flexible spine. We will work on the 5 natural spinal movements to keep your vertebrae mobile and core strong. These 5 movements are spine articulation, side bends, rotation, flexion and extension.
